FANNY (BE TENDER WITH MY LOVE)
By
Bee Gees

***************

First I rise, then I fall
Seems like you don’t want the love
Of this man at all
And it’s sure been a lonely time
Right up to the time I met you
So if you take a love like mine

Be tender with my love;
You know how easy it is to hurt me
Fanny, be tender with my love,
‘Cause it’s all that I’ve got
And my love won’t desert me

So you say to yourself, boy,
You’re out of your brain;
Do you think I’m gonna stand here
All night in the rain?
And it’s the start of a love affair
The moment when I first met you
And if you want I’ll take you there;

Be tender with my love;
You know how easy it is to break me
Fanny, be tender with my love,
‘Cause it’s all that I’ve got
And my love won’t forsake me.

With my love,
Our love will seal it together.
Oh, with our love,
You made a promise
You’ll always love me forever.

Be tender with my love;
You know how easy it is to break me
Fanny, be tender with my love,
‘Cause it’s all that I’ve got
And my love won’t forsake me.

KISS OF LIFE

***************

Never more aware of what you do
I got you leavin’ me and missing you
And me believing that you’ve never done right
When you’ve never done wrong

You been comin’ to me late at night
It’s not the eye alone that gives you sight
I’ve never given anybody my soul
But I’m coming undone

I’m a survivor but I’m reaching my low
But I’m not ready to die

I’m here for the kiss of life
I’m here for the kiss of life
Just give me the kiss of life

Watch them hold you
Count their faces
A never – ending line
But they’re only imitations
Existing out of time

So now you’re telling me it’s just a ring
You say it’s nothing but it’s everything
I’m under pressure and I’m under
Your gun and I’m fingers and thumbs

You got the questions and the answers
I know
I’m being buried alive

I’m here for the kiss of life
I’m here for the kiss of life
Just give me the kiss of life

I can’t stay here
Lost without you
Strangers in the dark
Holyangel
Living for you
To love and never cry

I’m a survivor but I’m reaching my low
But I’m not ready to die

I’m here for the kiss of life
I’m here for the kiss of life
Just give me the kiss of life

CLOSE ANOTHER DOOR

***************

Many years have passed, it seems,
And now I’m all alone.
I’ve sent the children far away
To some obscure unknown.

It’s so sad,
So sad.
Close another door.
Listen to my eyes.
Close another door.
You’re much too old to work,
So won’t you run away?

When I was young, I used to say
That age won’t bother me.
The life I had was very sad,
It all went out to sea

And though the sun is in outside,
The rain is in my hair.
Now all my life is lived inside
My home is in my chair.

Let me go.
Send me flowers and
Put me on a plane.
I’ve paid before,

But I’ve been told
At least I’m alive

I may be old but I’ve been told at least I’m still alive
Fly me up, and send me off,
I been working so, so very hard at being young but now I’m tired
I… I’ve been told, my arms, said let me work it out baby,
Work it, work it, work it out, let me try

I WAS THE CHILD

***************

When I was you we walked to school
And I carried your books ’cause even then I was a fool
But you grew up and said goodbye
I still remember the things that made me cry

For all too soon my story ends
I found a love, now not even friends
Tell me why
loving you , loving me like you used to do
I was the child

I held your hand and I told you things
And I made you believe, believe in fairy tales
and diamond rings

hen all too soon my story ends
I found a love ,now not even friends
Tell me why
loving you , loving me like you used to do
I was the child
Ah …..

I STILL LOVE YOU

***************

Close your eyes do what you wanna
Baby how can I wait much longer
Make it hard to believe it happened to me
Morning comes too late tomorrow
All you lose is the dream you borrow
All you got is a soul that’s born to be free
and cries to the wind
Waiting for you
My dream will find you someday
I stand beside my vision of you
And have you loving me

I still love you
(Ah…)
I still love you
(Ah..)

Though you’re my imagination
You be there when we find salvation
Only then will there be no reason to hide
Stormy night out in the heaven
I believe in the true forever
There’s a bright new star when somebody dies
I cry to the wind
Waiting for you
Sweet love returning someday
The day you learn love happened to you
You will be here with me

I still love you
(Ah…)
I still love you
(Ah..)

I’ll be waiting for you
Sweet love returning someday
The day you learn love happened to you
You will be here with me
I still love you
(Ah..)
I still love you
(Ah..)
I still

THIS IS WHERE I CAME IN

***************

I’ve seen the story
I’ve read it over once or twice
I said that you say
A little bit of bad advice
I been in trouble
Happened to me all my life
I lie and you lie
And who would get the sharpest knife

You know I shouldn’t be somebody like that
I’m not the kind of man to throw his hat into the ring and
Go down without following through
The day turns into night
Go down without following through
The day turns into night

Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in

Hope rides on
But I’ll go anywhere
Yes, I’ll go anywhere with you
Time has gone
But I’ll go anywhere
Yes, I’ll go anywhere with you

This is the danger zone
This is where I came in
They know not what they do
Forgive them of their sins
They know they cannot take away
What you have given me

Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in

Fade into colour
Colour into black and white
Under the bedclothes
Everything will be alright
I know that you know
Nothing ever stays the same
Said so, I said so
The love will never speak its name

Never gonna find somebody like you
Beauty with a brain and a body too
I could never make a move on a woman that leads me on
She’s got a little bit of something for everyone
It’s a little too late and the wolf is on the run

Hope rides on
But I’ll go anywhere
Yes, I’ll go anywhere with you
Time has gone
But I’ll go anywhere
Yes, I’ll go anywhere with you

I always told myself
I would regret this day
That I would fall apart
And watch you walk away
That you would cry out loud
And I would stand aside

Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in

Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in

I can fly
But I’ll go anywhere
Yes, I’ll go anywhere with you
Time goes by
But I’ll go anywhere
Yes, I’ll go anywhere with you

This is the danger zone
This is where I came in
They know not what they do
Forgive them of their sins
They know they cannot take away
What you have given me

Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in

Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in

Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in
